Hello Rick:

Just now catching up a bit.  I like the color you have chosen for the overall paint, PC12 I believe.  It is really looking the business now with the rigging etc.  Looking forward to seeing you button it up.

Best

Mark
Thanks Mark. Getting very close now. Perhaps I will finish it off on my next off work rotation  :-\

Here is where I got to after my 3 days off of work. All of the rigging except the Ailerons from the horns to the wings is done. After the upper wing decals are applied I will go nack and Paint all appropriate parts gloss black.

I like your tripe! It's nicely painted and well rigged and it's a very eye catchy model.
 
Well done!

Cheers

Excellent work Rick, your build has been superb and your choice of colours are perfect, the darkish chocolate looks great, I like the markings you are using as well.

wow, how nice! the color is gorgeous, and must not be an easy one!

...and how many ailerons... should have been really maneuverable on the roll, this little thing! :D
